Kemono Friends Anime Gets Unofficial ‘Episode 12.1’ by Director

TATSUKI, the director of the Kemono Friends anime, posted an unofficial “episode 12.1” for the Kemono Friends anime on Wednesday. The story features the Owls, Raccoon, and Fennec searching for a new bus.

TATSUKI emphasizes that this “indie” video “made just for fun” is not the upcoming “new screen project” that has been green-lit for the franchise.

The Kemono Friends television anime premiered on TV Tokyo and TV Osaka on January 10 and ended on March 25. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired.

Nexon launched the smartphone game last year. In the RPG, animals around the world have transformed into girls and players could recruit them into their party for battle.

The original app game ended service on December 14. Nexon announced in February that the app will not return despite the anime’s popularity, but a spokesperson for the company later stated last month that the app’s return “is possible.”
